July Favorites

~ “If we lived in 1913″ is a series broadcast daily (in French) on France Inter radio, in which historian Antoine Prost talks about daily life in France one hundred years ago. I was particularly interested in this one: “If we lived in 1913, we would eat mostly bread.”

~ Finally all is revealed, and I am tickled to know that long-time fellow blogger Josh Friedland was behind Ruth Bourdain all this time.

Reading of your blog is always a pleasure. Some of your July favorites is really attracting.

Thank you for recommending the “Si nous vivions en 1913″ podcast – I spent a very happy hour catching up with it earlier this evening.

And that courgette “hummus” is simply delicious – I have just served it as a sauce with fish and vegetables, and I think I could very happily use it instead of mayonnaise; I wonder whether my daughter, who normally dislikes courgettes, would like it (my grandson is still at the age of saying “I don’t like that; I’ve never had it!”).

So glad you enjoyed the podcast and had good success with the courgette hummus, Annabel!
